For the sake of this article, let’s talk about one specific beneficial nutrient… You’ve likely heard about the benefits of lycopene. Lycopene is a carotenoid found primarily in red, orange and yellow foods. […]
Ranch dressing…we all grew up on it. It might be the only reason you consider eating a salad. It makes all food taste better…But you know there’s some issues with it, right? So many otherwise healthy foods get ruined by ranch dressing…UNTIL TODAY! I have clients often tell me that they are eating great food […]

Is there a such thing as a “bad” food? If so, how would you determine if a food is bad or good? What about “all things in moderation”? I am not new to the field of nutrition…I have two master’s degrees (in vegan live food/nutrition and clinical nutrition). A long standing and constant point […]

The problem: Have you ever had this all too frustrating experience? You have some given symptom…perhaps fatigue, headaches, PMS, weight gain, etc. You go to your doctor, and they run a bunch of tests, typically starting with some basic blood work. The results are back. Good news. Turns out, there’s “nothing wrong with you”. Go […]
For the past 10 or so years of my life, I have travelled A LOT. My husband was a professional speaker. We invest in real estate. We have moved several times and don’t live near family. We go to lots of educational and business development conferences/events. My personal health care team has been out of […]

Although PMS (pre-menstrual syndrome) can be made up of many symptoms, for the sake of this article, we will be focusing on menstrual cramps (also referred to as dysmenorrhea). Periods shouldn’t hurt! Yes, you heard that right. Although menstrual cramps are common, they are NOT normal or inevitable. When something is not right in the […]
I have personally had clients (of all ages) impacted by this condition. Sometimes the label and judgement can even be harsher than the condition itself. It’s important to start on the same page, so let’s jump in… There is a distinction between a child who has lots of energy, which is perfectly normal for a […]
If you are heading to or hosting a party, Cool Ranch Kale Chips will always be a delicious hit!
